  • Political Areas of Competition in Southwest Finland: a Cluster Analysis of Parliamentary Election Data from Three Levels of Aggregation
    Research on Finnish Society Vol. 11 (2018), pp. 24-43 Political areas of competition in Southwest Finland: A cluster analysis of parliamentary election data from three levels of aggregation Lasse Nurmi and Tommi Meskanen Abstract This research utilizes the methods of geography, mathematics and political ecology to outline the political areas and to define the profiles of political competition within the region of Southwest Finland using parliamentary election results from the 2010s. Additionally the research investigates the areal concentration and dispersion of support for the par- liamentary parties and the effect of the regional level of aggregation to the concentration of the political support. Our research questions are: (1) are there distinctive political areas in Southwest Finland? And (2) can political areas of stable and unstable competition patterns be identified by investigating election results over time? Using cluster analysis and map visualizations we show that there are distinctive political areas of competition to be found in contemporary Southwest Finland and that the map of political support changes significantly at the municipal and polling district levels. Keywords: electoral geography, cluster analysis, parliamentary elections, political areas Introduction This study has both theoretical and practical aims: (1) we test cluster analysis as a means of describing the competition constellations between parties, and (2) through cluster analysis and studying electoral support on different levels of aggregation we provide information about the diversity of party support. This information can be used, for example, to decide at which geographical area it would be useful to allocate campaign resources for maximum impact, and what kinds of candidates a party should recruit to increase its support in areas of low support.

    for individual travellers and for groups CONTENT RAUMA – A TOWN WITH TWO UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITES 4 - 7 RAUMA – A GENUINE TOWN OF THE SEA AND THE ARCHIPELAGO 8 - 11 UNIQUE AND AUTHENTIC RAUMA 12 - 15 TOURS 16 - 17 Rauma - Heritage for the whole world Rauma, Finland’s third oldest town, is exceptional on both a national and international scale. Two of the seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Finland are located in Rauma. One of the sites, Old Rauma, is an extensive, uniform wood-built town district dating back to the Middle Ages. Old Rauma is a living town district where historical heritage lives on in perfect harmony with modern commerce and local residents. You’ll find an ample range of high-quality cafes, restaurants and charming little boutiques there. The idyllic ambience is complemented by museums, lovely gardens, the marketplace and the impressive medieval Church of the Holy Cross. The other World Heritage Site is the Bronze Age cairn cemetery of Sammallahdenmäki. The stone structures at Sammallahdenmäki – Bronze Age burial cairns built on rocks – bear evidence to the early settlement. Colourful maritime past Seafaring has for centuries brought an international flavour to the life of this small town. Rauma has always earned its livelihood from the sea and in addition has a long tradition of overseas trade, thereby adopting influences from faraway lands. The three tourist islands of Rauma – the Kylmäpihlaja lighthouse island, the Kuuskajaskari fortress island and the Reksaari nature island – are located just off the coast of the town. The archipelago of Rauma belongs to the Bothnian Sea National Park and provides a splendid, memorable setting for those who love the sea and the great outdoors.

Åretrunt- och fritidsboende, hamnar, industri och trafik upptar redan största delen av havskustens strandlinje. I de livligaste områdena är bara en liten del av stranden fri och obebyggd. Den fria strandlinjen är splittrad på små av- snitt, på öar och längre bort från de största befolkningscentren. En hållbar användning av kusterna har på senare år blivit en aktuell fråga i och med att städerna och näringslivet växer mest på kusterna. Detta gäller hela Europa. Kommande generationer kommer inte att ha några större möjligheter att besluta om användningen av dessa områden. Rekommendationen om en hållbar användning och skötsel av kustområdena i Europeiska Unionen fäster uppmärksamhet vid frågan och uppmanar medlemsländerna att utarbeta en strategi för kusterna. Den nationella kuststrategin som utarbetades i Finland år 2006 lägger fram sätt att använda kusten på ett mer hållbart sätt. Den utredning som nu har gjorts bidrar till att nå detta mål.

  • The Finnish Archipelago Coast from AD 500 to 1550 – a Zone of Interaction
    The Finnish Archipelago Coast from AD 500 to 1550 – a Zone of Interaction Tapani Tuovinen [email protected], [email protected] Abstract New archaeological, historical, paleoecological and onomastic evidence indicates Iron Age settle- ment on the archipelago coast of Uusimaa, a region which traditionally has been perceived as deso- lated during the Iron Age. This view, which has pertained to large parts of the archipelago coast, can be traced back to the early period of field archaeology, when an initial conception of the archipelago as an unsettled and insignificant territory took form. Over time, the idea has been rendered possible by the unbalance between the archaeological evidence and the written sources, the predominant trend of archaeology towards the mainland (the terrestrical paradigm), and the history culture of wilderness. Wilderness was an important platform for the nationalistic constructions of early Finnishness. The thesis about the Iron Age archipelago as an untouched no-man’s land was a history politically convenient tacit agreement between the Finnish- and the Swedish-minded scholars. It can be seen as a part of the post-war demand for a common view of history. A geographical model of the present-day archaeological, historical and palaeoecological evi- dence of the archipelago coast is suggested. Keywords: Finland, Iron Age, Middle Ages, archipelago, settlement studies, nationalism, history, culture, wilderness, borderlands. 1. The coastal Uusimaa revisited er the country had inhabitants at all during the Bronze Age (Aspelin 1875: 58). This drastic The early Finnish settlement archaeologists of- interpretation developed into a long-term re- ten treated the question of whether the country search tradition that contains the idea of easily was settled at all during the prehistory: were perishable human communities and abandoned people in some sense active there, or was the regions.

Without the advice and encouragement of certain persons this work would not have been possible, or at least it would have looked very different. To these persons I direct my deep gratitude. First of all I want to thank my supervisors, professors Gunilla Widén-Wulff and Mike Thelwall, for their advice and support throughout this process. I have been very fortunate to have two such knowledgeable and generous supervisors. Gunilla has given me the freedom to pursue my own path and make my own discoveries, but she has always been there to help me find my way back to the path when I have strayed too far from it. It has been a great privilege to have Mike as my second supervisor. Mike’s vast knowledge and experience of webometrics, great technical skills, and unparalleled helpfulness have been extremely valuable throughout this research. I also want to thank professors Mariam Ginman and Sara von Ungern-Sternberg for convincing me to pursue a doctoral degree, a decision that I have never regretted.
